Norway Allocates NOK 50 Million to 17 Universities

Posted date: 07 Dec 2022

The Norwegian government has allocated NOK 50 million to a total of 17 universities, which will be used to cover travel expenses for students participating in internships that are not close to their place of study.
The universities that will receive the most funding are Norway’s Arctic University, the University of Western Norway, and VID University of Applied Sciences. The support, which intends to increase the number of internships provided in health and social studies courses, has been announced as part of the 2022 revised national budget, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.

“The money is now allocated to 17 state and private universities and colleges. The government has previously allowed money for 300 new study places in nursing education and specialist nursing education, and asked universities and colleges to establish 200 new study places in nursing education within existing frameworks,” a media release issued by the Ministry of Education reads.
